We were the only ones in the restaurant at 5:30 PM. The food arrived ..lukewarm and sparse. The new owner (the cook) was the only person there. When there is a new owner, we will return. We took pics of the food but I am not able to paste them in here. :(

It was a bright and sunny August afternoon and we had finished perusing the butterfly garden up the…read morehill. We strolled down through the beautiful gardens to the restaurant perched on the riverbanks. The restaurant does not optimize for volume or turnover and we had a 45 minute wait. We enjoyed the adjoining shop and their selection of jams and spread. The wait was worth it! The room is a bright large room overlooking the river. Handmade quilts hang from the ceiling. We started with nachos, that had the right blend of cheese and toppings. Unfortunately there were no side plates brought, causing us to eat like animals from a common trough. A slight mishap with a spilled glass of water interrupted our otherwise pleasant appetizer. The server's attention was less than prompt causing us to get extra napkins from directly behind the counter. Still, we soldiered on and prepared for the main feast. The seafood chowder was one of the better ones all trip. Fresh and flavourful pieces in a cream broth, served with a fresh side biscuit. The real opportunity is to highlight the delicious jams and spreads from the shop which would add some much needed flavour to the biscuits. Other meals included kids pasta, kids jam sandwich, a club sandwich, fish cakes and a Caesar salad. All were promptly devoured. A great location with fresh food and pleasant service. Worth the wait!

A glass of wine might have eased the gap; but they were already out of red.

In reading all the national press about PEI's recent political debacles, one of the funniest public…read morecomments I came across was: "It's 11 o'clock in Toronto, 1953 in PEI". In many ways, this is true (certainly over at the Legislative Assembly, where Boss Tweed seems to have been reincarnated multiple times in the guise of an uneducated gang of greedy island fops). So every new food initiative which opens on PEI, whether it be a restaurant, a chip stand, or a food truck, is a small but very welcome miracle. Food restores the soul, and reminds us that there is hope. Recent rumbles of concern over in Summerside about there possibly being too many food trucks (uh, I believe they have three or four now... not exactly the Charge of the Light Brigade) is typically foolish small town politics and parochialism- it's just so darn silly you have to laugh or you will cry. So it is a very fortunate thing that Chef Norman, originally from Nicaragua, raised in Costa Rica, has brought his delicious concoctions and his warm and welcoming personality to the streets of this small island city. Menu items include a drop-dead delicious poutine with Norman's own home made gravy, beautifully seasoned pulled pork sandwiches, poboy sandwiches, fresh fish tacos, fried oyster tacos, a real caesar salad; and there's always something new which Chef Norman is more than willing to describe to you in minute detail (like the way he uses a local garlic guy's very own home made "black garlic"' liquified into a fabulous sauce. Mmmm. Mmmm. Gooooood!! This guy is a gem, and his cooking positively shimmers with inventiveness. Go. Eat. Live.

Even the sides of corn, carrots, broccoli, garden salad, etc. were excellent. The Bubbly Bake was the table favorite and was a generous portion. The Lobster Thermidor was excellent but the portion was small compared to the other dishes. Lobster dip left us scraping the bottom of the bowl for every bit. Haddock was very good but didn't stand out like our favorites. The halibut was fine but somewhat bland. Staff were friendly, warm, and attentive. It was a memorable night for our family.

We tried their sliced white bread, dinner rolls, and sub bread. All were fresh and soft. Their cinnamon rolls were a little dry but were good when microwaved.

We also really enjoyed their subs. They have ample meat and offer a lot of toppings. They also have homemade pizza and other hot dishes like lasagna. They also have a refrigerated area with prepared meals for purchase. The establishment is debit or cash only and US debit cards will not work. There is ample parking.
